R. Schulz, a faculty member of Selkirk Col- lege. The vehicle has a top speed of 85 mph and a range of eight miles, It is powered by two 5 hp, D.C. motors operated by eight 12 V car batteries. The batteries are recharged over a period of six hours, The conversion was ac- complished by mounting the electric motors on the original VW engine and driving the crankshaft by a pulley and bell arrangement, The clutch and transmission were retained, but unneeded parts such as heads and pistons etc. were removed. The: oil pressure mechanism was also retained in order to protect the crankshaft bearings. Speed is controlled by the selection of gears since the electric motors are either on or off, Very slow speeds for park- ing are obtained by using the original starter motor. The weight increase of the vehicle is due to the batteries only and amounts to 360 pounds. The cost of the conversion was $400. The cost of operation of the vehicle at hydro rates for the Castlegar area is 0.76 cents per mile. The cost of operating the same Volkswagen with gasoline 23 cents per mile As gasoline supplied be- come more limited, the electric vehicle may be more acceptable in the future. B,C.

Botts’ St Bernard cleared a five-foot fence at the chief's home and ran loose around the town until he was apprehended, Without hesitation, Botts wrote himself a ticket to appear in court. s Beaver City's ordinances call for a verbal warning on the first offence and a fine of. $6 and costs on the. second. Botts pleaded guilty to the second of- fence, “The dog got loose once before and I warned myself then that I would be fined the next time," he said, if in the early grades is going to be upgraded, “One thing our govern- ment will do in this province is to get more fitness education in the early grads, where all children will be taught good living habits, health habits and fitness habits and be directed and taught. to carry these habits with them for the rest of their lives.” Criticizing physical educa- tion teachers “who don’t prac- tice what they preach,” he said: “It’s. a tragedy many of our children are instructed in physi- cal education by an overweight teacher smoking a cigarette.” He said he hopes improved education can reverse the de: generation of Canadian fitness, “People are even too lazy to show up at football games and hockey games and want to watch them on TV. instead.” The Wizard's Palace Funteria Is coming ue ocenlenat Entertainer Page KINNAIRD L A.
